摘要:
A resynchronization method for wireless ad-hoc network environments that are synchronized by a synchronization signal broadcast from one arbiter includes (a) preparing a candidate arbiters list that lists the wireless access devices linked to a wireless ad-hoc network that are capable of becoming candidate arbiters; (b) sending the candidate arbiters list to the wireless access devices of the wireless ad-hoc network; and (c) broadcasting the synchronization signal by a wireless access device selected as a new arbiter based on the candidate arbiters list, if the synchronization signal is not broadcast for a predetermined timeout period. Accordingly, if an arbiter stops its operations in the wireless ad-hoc network, the resynchronization is rapidly performed by the most suitable wireless access device.
摘要:
A hardware device for executing conditional instructions out-of-order and the execution method. An architecture is provided, enabling the hardware device such as a processor supporting the conditional instruction and a computer system to execute the instruction out-of-order. To this end, a conditional execution buffer is provided, and a register of a destination operand of the conditional instruction is renamed to another register. Hence, the hardware device using the conditional instruction can carry out the out-of-order execution, and the execution speed of the hardware device can be greatly improved.
